The Happy Gardener

makes me happy.

Like many folks in Sewanee, she's seriously over-qualified for her profession, having been a doctoral candidate before picking up her clippers.  When she waters or plants or dead-heads The Lemon Fair garden, the dirt itself sighs like a tired and cranky client slowly relaxing on a massage table.

More of us should be like her: happy in the work we choose regardless of our credentials.
